Nose of wet earth, sweet mid season strawberry, spices, minerals, sweet ripe tomato, watermelon and iodine. Very harmonious aromas. A gamey element as well that adds intrigue. Palate is sappy and elegant with such refined mousse and silky flavors of strawberry and watermelon. With air the nose has soppy cherries now and just a deeper fruit expression overall. Really good acids but also it clearly needs air. Man, after some air the fruit has such remarkable clarity and really hits. — a year ago
Candied almonds, mascarpone, and chantilly cream. Vanilla bean highlights a creamy sweetness on the nose. Soft and smooth mouthfeel. Palate delivers bright pear, honeycomb apple and homemade pie crust. Super delicious. Finish over delivers. Makes me wonder why I don’t drink more champagne. 40% Chardonnay, 40% Pinot Meunier and 20% Pinot Noir. Opened in memory of my grandfather who passed today. #garyveewineclub — 7 years ago

Apple and pear on the nose. Citrus. Just amazing. Carmel and toasty finish. Almost can’t add juice to it for my mimosa plan. — 8 years ago
Beautiful champagne. Matured with oak, pure Chardonnay (blanc de blanc). Loved it. — 13 years ago
Popped and poured; enjoyed over the course of several hours. The 2008 Grand Cru VV pours a straw color with a persistent mousse. On the nose, the wine is developing, almost youthful and initially, extremely bright and vibrant; like a laser beam of acid and marzipan. After a couple of hours of air, this really became exceptional with tropical fruit, lemon, curd, brioche, and an enormous amount of minerals. On the palate, the wine is dry and acid is high as one would expect. Confirming the notes from the nose. The finish is long. A serious wine that needs time and, probably one of those champagnes that could use a decant. Better after 2028 and through 2043. Disgorged 2023. Thanks for the assist @Lyle Fass — a year ago

Nice complex nose with wood and elite Chardonnay character. Rich and intense, with razor-sharp acidity, shards-of-glass precision, some opulence, a long finish and very fine mousse. — 11 days ago
